You Betcha

1. This is awesome, conceptually.

2. It'd be even better with fewer jorts and more people who had done something - anything - athletic within the previous ten years.

3. I cannot believe that drunken idiot fratguys didn't come up with this years ago.

4. It'll be ruined by hipsters within three years.

Speaking of point two, I played 90 minutes of "cardio tennis" yesterday and my wrist feels great. My legs are a little sore but in a good way. Then I went out and got drunk but I am not hungover.

I will likely get hit by a bus today to make up for all this.

The Tiger and Bubba Show is quite entertaining at the moment. TDub may have just hit it into the beer tent. Cannonball coming.

Annnnnd he's done. WD after tee shot at 9 - back injury. May make Toom's choice that much easier.

I'm watching the 2013 Georgia-Auburn game. I need football to start soon.

The Bengals are notoriously cheap but they're giving Andy Dalton 6 yrs for $115M? Even with the over inflated numbers in NFL contracts, that ridiculous.

My calculator says that's $19.167 M a year. My gut says that's way too much. Only 5 QBs make more than that and Eli, Roethlisberger, and Brady make less.

So, the Bengals are worried they won't be able to find another guy to hand off 45 times a game and throw for 140 yds? That makes the Flacco deal look downright scrupulous.

Bengals only gave Dalton $18M guaranteed. Mike Brown is still Mike Brown. Phew.

i just googled "cardio tennis" and it sounds really silly.

confirm or deny, zman.

I have done the same clinic as Zman. Not as silly as it sounds. You do tennis drills, then switch off to core/cardio exercises. The upside is there are usually a few frisky cougars in the class, forcing the men to minimize their flailing.

I'd much rather hit tennis balls than do fitness drills with a medicine ball, but it's easy to mail it in during a traditional tennis lesson and I need all the exercise I can get.

Disappointed not to see "Cumbersome" on the Paste Magazine's 50 Greatest Grunge Songs.

The Iceberg Slim documentary on Showtime is tremendous. I never knew there we so many different types of pimping.
